Default 1993 kawasaki bayou 300 4x4 Need some help

Hey guys i have a 1993 bayou 300 4x4 and the electric start just went out on me. I was riding like normal and cut it off to take a break for a minute and then nothing didn't want to start. I can still pull start it and it will crank up. When i hit the start button there is just a click. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a volt/ohm meter?

Rule out a bad battery first.Check connections to make sure they're tight at the battery, solenoid and starter. Check that solenoid is getting voltage on starter cable side. If not,then possible faulty solenoid. If you're getting voltage to solenoid and starter,loosen the starter nut,move it around and tighten the nut to check if has a bad connection.If starter is getting voltage,then probably a bad starter.Possible a starter gear or chain could also lock up? http://www.partzilla.com/parts/searc...TOR/parts.html If it's a starter you can get one here for 50 bucks.DB Electrical - KAWASAKI ATV STARTER KLF300 BAYOU KVF KEF PRAIRIE 1985-2004 Plus here's a video on one with a slipping starter clutch to show what's involved in this set up.
